Challenges Confronting America, China, and Iran Edited by
Thomas A. Johnson University of Wisconsin-Parkside, Kenosha, USA
With China holding so much of America’s debt, currency valuation issues have already caused tensions between the two superpowers. Couple this with Iran’s efforts to develop into a nuclear power, and the United States and China could soon find themselves in a global power tug-of-war. This volume explores the shifts in power that have initiated major transformational events around the world. Describing how current and emerging situations will impact the U.S., the book discusses the effect of information technology and social media tools, insights from intelligence community experts, challenges with Iran, and the rapid growth of China’s economic wealth and military power.
